Hello Michiel!

Methinks that you would need to ask Janis. Google revealed her
@gmail address quite readily at a Synchronet-based BBS.
In the last few weeks she announced frustrations in getting a
replacement pc operating. Meanwhile, maybe a completely
different matter (ie. family|health) arose and became a
priority. Give her a break.

Now it sounds like you would need to ask the elist-keeper. ;)
There is no point expounding on maybees and whatifs. You know
how to contact people directly if you want.

Perhaps ask the elist-keeper what he knows.

No point in dwelling and rehashing the past either. Onward and
upward.
